I Love this Idea

I was bored at working hard today, but took a minute to do a little blog hopping.
My niece had sent me a message on facebook saying she wanted to do something different for her birthday and i was the creative one, should i think of anything let her know.

Well I found this website this morning and thought it was the coolest thing that i had to share it with everyone!

14. Say it on a Starbucks Memory Tumbler - you can make and insert new memorabilia to suit the season or occasion.

15. Print a birthday message with a photo on a T-shirt, mouse pad, pillowcase or other blank surface.

16. Say it in an ad in a local paper that your loved one reads.

17. Write a birthday message with 'glow in the dark' pens or paints on a pillowcase or somewhere (ceiling) your loved one will see it. Little kids will love reading these glowing words. You could write: Happy Birthday, You light up our life!

18. Tape a happy birthday note to the bottom of a clear glass. Fill it with a favorite beverage for a loved one to find and read later.

19. Write birthday messages on balloons with permanent markers

20. Make a keepsake bookmark, listing the date and their age, along with your birthday wishes. Tuck it inside a new book by their favorite author.

21. Buy a journal and record a birthday message with a special memory of the birthday person.

22. Buy a scrapbook album and include a promise to make a scrapbook layout of the birthday. Bring your camera and take fun birthday photos.

23. Go extravagant. Put it on a local billboard, on the side of a sky blimp, or written by a sky writer to read while having a picnic.

24. Go simple. Write happy birthday on a beach in the sand with a stick, or spell it out in small shells or rocks.

25. Do a documentary on the life of someone you love honoring them. You can have old videos, favorite photographs and even scrapbook pages edited and put on DVD. You can gather a group of people to sing Happy Birthday and record their own message. Decorate the video cassette box with birthday stickers and photocopies of favorite photographs.

Wow! Thanks so much for the shout out and link to my blog. I am honored and humbled by the response and LOVE more than anything that other people are continuing to pass it on. I wish I could relive that day over and over again...too bad it doesn't pay the bills or I'd totally take that job! :)I hope your niece has a great birthday and I'd love to hear how it goes if she does something similar.Thanks so much again for sharing.Have a great day!Warmly,Robyn
